Germany will go to the polls early in the new year on February 23. Then the attack on the Christmas market in Magdeburg will not have been forgotten. Five people, including a child, were murdered on Friday by a man from Saudi Arabia. He drove at an emergency speed into people walking. In addition to the five fatalities, 41 people were seriously injured and dozens of others suffered serious injuries.
